I've never heard of Flattr, whereas I think most people know Mozilla or at least have heard of them through Firefox. I'd expect Mozilla to be more invested in the "pay with $, not ads" approach compared to Google. Mozilla owns Pocket, which has been relatively good at finding longreads type material on the net and rendering it in a reader-mode view, so I think they're a better cultural/philosophical fit. I don't use Patreon. IIUC, you need to sign up to support different content providers individually. That's not what I want. |

Well, isn't the the same thing in the end? Both you and the person you want to pay need to have ths same platform? If someone uses chrome, won't they need to go and "find" the site using Firefox to pay.
What you want is to be able to pay for something once you've found it? I get that, and it's a slightly different model than patreon, but in the end it is the same problem: micropayments are expensive and currently require someone to batch them.
The bigger problem is that requires another shared middle man that some people may not like fot whatever reason.
